The cherry blossoms are in bloom, and while it’s a few weeks past, here’s a little fun to celebrate the annual Cherry Blossom Festivals around the world at this time. Haven’t pulled much at all until this guy.

If you have me added there’s a good chance you can wonder pick a shiny!

Unfortunately shinies are not allowed to be wonder picked like Immersives and Crowns.

But nice god pack!

Congratulations! I’ve made it to ultra ball 2 and now I’m scared to play any more games, haha

Thank you!! Yeah the grind gets really bad in ultra ball. If I wasn’t such a completionist I probably would’ve just sat there and not grinded so hard lol

Has anyone else had an oddly high rate of heads recently? I used to get tails it felt like 75% of the time, but this weekend it felt like 10%. I started documenting it was that weird…

I have almost not flipped a single tails on the first flip for about 4 days straight. 26:h 2:t ;
total 37:h 8:t :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

edit:
and I’ve gone first 18/20 times…
updated numbers for this morning
…wondering if they changed the math or something with the last update. I haven’t played much til this week.

Should be just luck/variance. Every heads from your perspective is tails from your opponents perspective so it still ends up 50/50

haha. good point. Also, I seemed to have terrible luck early in the game, so maybe it’s convergence. :zany_face: Tho, I wondered if they changed the flip odds to make players feel better, like they changed the land odds in Magic Arena.

I’ve seen it floated around that the solo battles are rigged in the players favor but not sure if that’s true haha

I’ve learned if you use Misty on the first turn to keep flipping until you get tails, it’s almost always (talking like 90%) tails on the first toss. Wonder if the game does that to prevent you from getting a round 1 KO?

Weird. I think it’s just luck, like @pwavy suggests. I’ve been getting 2 and 3 heads from that regularly the last few days on turn 1. Seems odd if the game is skewing the results.


@pwavy I’ve noticed the P1 vs Com battles, the computer will change out or not attack for no apparent reason sometimes, other than to give me a chance(?)

Speak of the devil. Had this kinda thing a few times today, managed to catch it on the last one.
